Holy Cow Casino and Brewery was a locals casino and microbrewery[2] on Las Vegas Boulevard in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. Owned by Big Dog's Hospitality Group,[4] Holy Cow was the first microbrewery in Las Vegas.[5]

History

The brewery had a capacity of 2,200 bbl per year.[1] The operation closed on March 22, 2002.[4] In 2004, plans were announced to replace the Holy Cow with a $700 million, 940-foot condominium tower called the Summit. In 2005, Ivana Trump became associated with the project, which was renamed as Ivana Las Vegas.[6]

The former location of the Holy Cow briefly served as a sales office for Ivana Las Vegas, which was ultimately cancelled. The building was demolished in late April 2012. In 2014, construction began on a two-story Walgreens store on the former property of the Holy Cow.[6]

At one point, Harry Caray, the announcer of the Chicago Cubs who was known for his saying "Holy cow!" during broadcasts, visited the Holy Cow Casino and Brewery and autographed a wall of the club with his signature saying.
